The problem is that the average person has been conditioned to live vicariously through these oligarchs and their children.

This generation has sold itself out. Being a useful idiot is cool. Fighting back against the disparity in wealth, I'm not joking, makes you worse than pedophiles in the eyes of the average consumer.
